The day began with a boat full of bugs! That's what we woke up to this morning! Hundreds of little white and black bugs. They were everywhere! In addition to that, the spiders had their way with the boat and it was ugly! For your future reference, spiders leave poop everywhere... and it's green or black depending on the spider!
Enough of that stuff!
Today we left Beaver Island and headed toward St. Ignace. St. Ignace is located just past the Mackinaw Bridge to the left. Last year we stayed at Mackinaw City a few times but we wanted to check out St. Ignace. And we were not disappointed at all. A lovely community in the UP of Michigan. The marina is beautiful and there are many attractions within walking distance of the marina.
We four The Galley and had dinner and then walked a littler further and found the grocery. Dinner was wonderful! White fish livers sauteed! We love them and only have them when we are far North. Yummy! The taste is somewhat like chicken livers but not quite a grainy. Much more "smooth" and rich.
We were able to sail all day, from the time we left Beaver until just before we came into the harbor at St. Ignace. A beautiful day and a great sail.
I'm attaching pics of a large freighter that we quickly passed today and the lighthouse at Gray's Reef. Love this part of the lake. So beautiful and blue the lake is. Today was busy with boats! And once we came under the bridge, the ferry's were everywhere!
All in all it was a great day! And now it's bed time for Bonzo! Tired after being in the great outdoors and walking all over St. Ignace!
Love and blessings to everyone,
Margo and Skip
